Oh my gosh, just wanted to share with other tattooed mums how good this stuff is! Kept it on for 4/5 days after my latest piece and have done a few days of bepanthen and it's pretty much healed with no scabbing!

I love second skin! Kept it on for six days with my latest tattoo. Took it off tonight & there’s minimal scabbing - all dry & using Tattoo Goo for next few days.
love the ink btw!

Am getting a new tattoo soon and this would be ideal.Which brand did you use as the ones on Amazon have bad reviews.Also how often did you change the dressing?Thanks.

Not a very good pic as I am still in bed (huzzah!) but here is mine currently - done yesterday

I've used it once before and when I removed it on day three sections of that one were fully healed and dry so I have high hopes for this one.

£30 a roll the tattooist told me. Cheaper ones are not so good

I bought this one and it worked really well. Pretty much healed by day 4/5. Definitely going to be my go to for future works

my tattoo artist offers second skin as part of their service. Looks to be the same as @TheFutureIs pictured above. My latest was only a tiny one on my ear. On bigger ones I’ve had to change it after a few days. I’d recommend Tattoo Goo for your first - the wash & cream are great and last ages 😊
